I envy you the chance to see those prints! Living in Singapore, the opportunity to see master work like that just doesn't come. Sigh... I have had some luck printing with an Epson 10600 using Jon Cone's K6 inks (the special edition set) on a paper from Japan made by Awagami. Their Bamboo paper has a very warm tone, smooth transitions, very gravure-like. It isn't the same but it is pretty good, nonetheless. I do wish I could see those original prints!!!
